Iframe transparent background

Question

My app has a modal dialog with an iframe inside it  I ve written my jQuery code such that when the dialog opens  it sets the appropriate  src  attribute of the iframe so the content loads up   However  during the delay between the dialog opening and the content loading  the iframe appears conspicuously as a white box   I d prefer the iframe have a transparent background   I ve tried setting allowtransparency  yes  on the iframe  Any ideas  Thanks

Why not just load the frame off screen or hidden and then display it once it has finished loading  You could show a loading icon in its place to begin with to give the user immediate feedback that it s loading

I ve used this creating an IFrame through Javascript and it worked for me      IFrame points to the IFrame element  obviously IFrame src    about  blank   IFrame style backgroundColor    transparent   IFrame frameBorder    0   IFrame allowTransparency  true     Not sure if it makes any difference  but I set those properties before adding the IFrame to the DOM  After adding it to the DOM  I set its src to the real URL
